Pros

FLEXIBILITY, FLEXIBILITY, FLEXIBILITY Work on what you want Work when you want Work where you want Very flexible schedule. I generally come in to the office at 1pm. Sometimes I leave at 10pm, sometimes I leave at 2am, sometimes [Fridays] I leave at 7pm. Sometimes I work from home. Sometimes I work from Hawaii. Excellent opportunity. I was promoted within 7 months of starting. Super flexible management. I told my manager I wanted to work on a new [my own] project; he immediately said go for it. I've been working on it full time for 1.5 months. I told my manager I wanted to move to Seattle. He said okay, look for a team up there. Awesome food. Awesome amenities. Smart people. Learn from the best.

Cons

Not as much opportunity for [company] growth as what you'd get at a startup.

Pros

The amount of freedom you get as an engineer is unlike anything I've seen. We have a culture that while going fast to build new things, strives to improve the codebase and overall code quality.

Cons

There are still a lot of bugs in the code base. Some employees are quite harsh in their review of other people's work, but I'm willing to write this off to people wanting everyone else to be excellent.
